Cheng Ye shook his head and blended himself into the crowd.
He heard people saying they wanted to go see a light show at night, he heard children saying they wanted to listen to a musical tomorrow, he heard young lovers making plans to climb up and sketch next week, and he looked at everyone here, so happy.
All boring and busy work has been replaced by machines. People only need to learn, make progress, do imaginative work, and create self-worth.
Everyone here is born with the right to choose everything.
Ding~
The sudden sound made Cheng Ye sober up.
The thick fog in his eyes faded, and he reached out and took out the mobile phone in his pocket.
There is a text message.
"Well, if you're interested, you can open the tracker's shared location and take a look."
The sender is Weishengan.
Cheng Ye suppressed his worries and opened the tracker's shared location.
There are four cursors on it.
In order to prevent accidents, Weisheng placed trackers on Cheng Ye and himself.
He and Wei Sheng'an were both little blue people, and Wei Sheng'an was thirty-five kilometers away from him at the moment.
The red one is the old man, very far away, the green one is the child, very far away...
Very close.
So close.
Cheng Ye suddenly raised his head and scanned the crowd in front of him, trying to find the child in this lively street.
But there were too many people, and his dark eyes gradually dimmed.
None of the children in the crowd was him.
However, the green cursor is still flashing.
Cheng Ye thought for a moment, then followed the green cursor and moved through the crowd, his eyes silently passing by the unfamiliar faces.
In just a few meters, he discovered something was wrong.
Many of the pedestrians on the road had their limbs replaced by machines.
Mechanical arms, mechanical legs, even mechanical brains...
[Ding, you have arrived. 】
A voice that only he could hear sounded in his ears.
He had no time to think and suddenly stopped.
Then an expression of disbelief appeared on his face.
There is nothing in front of me.
Not a single child.
There was only one couple taking a group photo, and a young man helped the old man get on the car.
Cheng Ye frowned and quickly checked the tracker's shared location function.
Nothing went wrong.
This tracker not only displays horizontal distance, but also longitudinal distance.
For example, the red cursor shows that the y (vertical distance) from him is 305 meters and the x (horizontal distance) is 2.3 kilometers.
And now, he and the green cursor show distances of y0 meters and x1 meters.
Cheng Ye lowered his head and picked up his phone to send a text message to Wei Sheng'an.
"Did you put the tracker on your child's clothes?"
Wei Sheng'an quickly replied: "No, I hit him between the eyebrows."
Cheng Ye: .......
Could it be that the child washed his face and washed off the tracker, and then...
"The tracker cannot be removed by non-players."
Weishengan then sent a text message.
"The manual is in the upper left corner of the sharing panel, click the three dots to view it."
Cheng Ye: .......
...
On the other side, Weisheng An entered the president's office openly and had a quarrel with his father.
In the middle of the quarrel, he calmly took out his cell phone to reply to the text message.
He looked calm and collected...
It made his old man so angry that he had a heart attack.
With his father blowing his nose and glaring in anger, he got a pass to the institute.
When he left, his father roared: "I don't know what's wrong with you two brothers. Each one of you is interested in the institute. I will demolish this institute tomorrow!"
Wei Sheng'an's brown eyes narrowed slightly, with unfathomable amusement in them.
This sentence means two things.
1. His father is not the mastermind behind the scenes. All the conspiracies discovered now may have nothing to do with this seemingly shrewd old man. Maybe he knows nothing and just wants to make more money.
2. This plan may have been jointly initiated by his eldest brother and the so-called professor. They have their own ambitions. Although they don’t know what they are, if it is really what they speculated...
Eternal life is something people long for.
But is the boring life, day after day, really interesting?
Wei Sheng'an's eyes flashed and he swaggered to the institute by car.
On the top floor of this tall building, Ge Jianbai stood at the floor-to-ceiling window, with a glass of red wine in his hand.
His expression was soft and enjoyable, and he narrowed his narrow eyes and looked at Wei Sheng'an's leaving figure.
He couldn't help but raise a charming smile.
"...Go on, go on."
"Go get the information I prepared for you..."
.......
But the next second.
Wei Sheng'an downstairs suddenly turned around.
Ge Jianbai subconsciously hid behind the curtain.
Although it was impossible to see him clearly from such a distance, Ge Jianbai still felt inexplicably frightened.
He moved his body slowly and cautiously poked his head out from behind the curtains, looking straight at Wei Sheng'an downstairs.
Wei Sheng'an was under the colorful billboards, and the many colorful lights dyed his hair with messy spots.
He slowly raised his eyelids, his brown eyes were like cold pools, showing a faint and imperceptible cunning color.
I couldn't tell where the focus of his gaze was. I could only see him standing there for a few seconds, then turning around and walking away, as if he was mocking something.
The speed of the car is very fast.
It does not require manual service. As long as you enter the place you want to go on the map after getting in the car, it will automatically drive to the destination.
There is no chance of an accident or traffic jam.
Everything has a big data computing route.
Wei Sheng'an didn't have time to appreciate the surrounding scenery.
It's already arrived.
In front of him is the underground research institute.
It is said to be underground, but in fact it is just wrapped in layers of clouds. If you don't know better, you will mistakenly think it is a cloud.
Wei Sheng'an waved the pass in his hand and approached the institute with a high profile.
The institute is a boxy house made entirely of steel without any windows.
Above is a curved roof, the extremely smooth steel shining in the sun.
Wei Sheng'an has a kind face, looks harmless to humans and animals, and has a gentle smile.
Getting closer to the institute.
The brain is working at high speed.
Mutated children, controlled education, and experiments in trying to live forever.
It's really not like a company can accomplish this. Perhaps, there is one person above his big brother.
He has greater energy, higher status, and more important identity.
He just hasn’t appeared yet——
The fifth player.
Wei Sheng'an's fair hand took the pass and put it into the card counter at the door.
[Identity under review...]
[Verification passed. 】
The green light comes on.
The impregnable door slowly opened.
【Please pass. 】
Wei Sheng'an took his own steps and strode in.
